I'm 32 and still play video games every once in a while! Granted I don't have kids or anything. Me and my high school buddies have made it a point to play video games online since we moved away from one another, etc. Now for my rant... Our dogs are so afraid of thunderstorms and nothing helps them. Nonstop panting and drooling everywhere. At your feet drooling everywhere. Put them out in the garage and lock the door and they try so hard to get in that they scratch the door all to hell. We've tried literally everything. Nothing helps and nothing works.
No comment on the video games. Re: The dogs They are scared and looking to you for protection so you lock them in the garage. Does that even seem logical to you? Wow.
I mean... What does everyone do with their outside dogs that are scared of stuff? If they don't bring them in and coddle them are they terrible people? Little overreaction here. I should mention that we TRIED putting them in the garage. We obviously don't do it every time it storms. Step off your pedestal. You don't know the whole story or our situation. They’ve been in our bed all morning while it stormed if it makes you feel better.
So over the week end in the Twin Cities there is a fund raising event featuring DJ's are going to live stream for 14 hours. They are raising $ for people of color who lost their business during the "civil unrest" Evidently if you are white you are SOL.
There are movements around that same idea where people are only buying from businesses where the owners are of color. Just a crazy time we live in. I’m glad I’m in the boonies. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
No she's a browning smooth bore and will drop a deer at , what I know, to be 110 yrds. That was my longest shoulder drop on a big doe. My first gun and I prefer her to my rifle. Oh bead site
My dog is/was terrified of sharp noises. Thunder, Fireworks, Smoke Detectors etc. If you have a basement let them down there with a radio or TV on to help mask the noise. if a basement isn't available then an interior room with the same sound masking tactic. Locking them in the garage will only make them worse as they are not able to escape what's terrorizing them. Eventually they'll stop running to the house for safety and head for the hills. Luckily, and sadly, my dog is now at the age where his hearing is dropping off and this year was the first where fireworks going off didn't have him spazzing out, was even in the backyard with him when an aerial went off about 5 houses down and he flinched but did not freak out as he didn't know what it was. although we did have a power interruption that lasted less than a minute a few eeks ago while I was gone. When I returned home the dog wasn't in the window or at the door and didn't come when I called him. Then I heard the high pitched chirp of a smoke detector. Rippped it off the wall and yanked the battery only to hear it again. AC powered carbon monoxide detector had glitched during the power interruption and had an ERR on the display and was chirping due to that. Poor dog was crammed under the bed and wouldn't come out. had to listen to that intermittent chirp for a few hours until I got back. Just have to find something that soothes them as it is not likely to go away, but you can make it worse.
I'm just a tad OCD with jigsaw puzzles. My wife purchased a 2000 piece pía seascape...after weeks, I wasplacing the last few pieces at lunch, to find 1 piece is missing. Aaaaaaaaarrrrrg!
I've found that the turkey loads like 4x6 will blow a hole through anything within 20 yards. 3 or 3 1/2" mag. So maybe I need to just buy a bunch of that
